I bought a trimmed Babe Ruth 1934 butterfinger. My only Ruth. I kept it in a magazine soft plastic holder with tape and a backing board - like a comic. With the price surge I decided to sell it. Buyer wanted better pics outside of the plastic. I removed it fine no problem. But instead of using a brand new magazine cover with plastic over the adhesive I tried to reuse the old one. The adhesive grabbed the face of the premium. They are so fragile that I knew trying to remove it would destroy the front. Luckily I had collectors insurance and was able to recoup my money... but damn. Babe had survived beautifully until he showed up in my house.
